Don't stay at this hostel unless you're a creepy man over 40 years old, because that's who over half the people staying here were. The room we stayed in was also SO tiny for six people and we all shared one bathroom which wasn't cleaned the entire three days we stayed there, it was pretty gross, I would pay an extra ten or fifteen euro and get a hotel.

The attached bar downstairs has really great character. It's a stones throw away from the centre of Cork. A couple of people in my room lost some items but I had no issues. Really friendly staff.

Very little space in the dorms but had good sleep and lovely showers! Nice breakfast and the kitchen was handy. Had relaxing time in the tv room. Could store my luggage for free. A lift would be great :) Anyway, would definitely recomend it

Everything is great except the small space in the room.

Nothing fantastic, but pleasingly average. The ensuite bathrooms are quite nice! It also didn't lose water during the flooding, which is a huge plus! Underbed lockers didn't allow for locking, which is very security isn't great, but there are lots of door locks, so that's good.

It's a very good location. The room was small but everything was new and clean. It was noisy at night as the room was just over the pub (loud music!!)
